Wooo, my first finished pieces of the new year, and they just happen to be of my all-time favorite Pokemon!

These two doggies were a commission for . I was so excited for the opportunity to work on these guys, and I really am so pleased with how they came out. That Arcanine gave me quite some trouble with all her fluff, but I managed to get it to look alright, I think. It was so incredibly hard for me to have to send these two away, though. ;_; Especially that Growlithe, I wanted to keep her so badly! I hope they have a safe trip to their new owner.

You can see individual pictures here:

Arcanine is definitely my biggest Pokemon sculpture(or any sculpture for that matter), measuring in at 5.25” tall and 6” long. Growlithe measures 3.25” tall and 4.5” long. They are both sculpted from Super Sculpey/Sculpey Firm over a wire and foil armature, painted with acrylic paint and sealed with a matte finish.

These pieces were a commission so they were already sold. I do still take sculpture commissions. Though I don't re-sculpt characters in the exact same pose, I can definitely sculpt the same Pokemon again. You can find out more information about my commissions here: fav.me/d3n177o

I agree with the person below. I've only just gotten into clay recently, and I've only made an Eevee for my mum so far, but Arcanine is one of my favourite pokemon (always in my team!) and this is so inspiring! You have such talent!

Aww, thank you! Sculpting just takes a lot of practice and patience, so I'm sure you will continue to improve as well! I'm so happy to be able to inspire others to try sculpting as well, it is such a fun craft!

I love them both, especially Arcanine If I may ask, how did you apply the acrylic colour so smoothly? My sculptures have little lumbs from the colour, and the brush streaks are often visible. But yours is flawless Really, how?

Making sure the paint is smooth can be very tedious! I typically water my paint down a bit, and use multiple thin layers instead of one thick layer. This keeps the paint from getting lumpy. I try to use the largest size brush I can and paint in one direction to avoid a lot of streaking. I hope that helps some!

Like, since it's a sculpture, it need lots time to bake. But most people on Youtube, they have their sculpture all burnt and they have to apply more clay on. Then they paint over it. Did you did that, or just got the colors of clay and started forming the Growlithe and Arcanine?? (Sorry if it's hard to understand. I suck at Language Arts!!!) XD

Well, the sculptures shouldn't be coming out burnt if they were baked at the right temperature and time. I also do not work with colored clay, all of my pieces are painted. It's a different piece, but here is a step-by-step on how I sculpt more of my pieces: [link]
